Tuesday Throwdown #167: Colours of Fall

Welcome to a brand new challenge with the Tuesday Throwdown gang. This week we are celebrating autumn and the theme of our challenge is "Colours of Fall".  Our sponsor this week is none other than the fabulous Robyn's Fetish and they have so generously provided the DT with adorable digis for our first challenge in October. I say adorable, but would you believe this little guy is actually called "Scary Pumpkin"?!


I'm using papers from Fancy Pants' "October 31" 6x6 pad. For embellishments I have 4 purple eyelets, some black and white baker's twine and black bling. 

Here's a close-up of "Scary Pumpkin". I coloured him with Graph It and Promarkers.  For the buckle on his hat I used Metallic Fine Point Sharpie in Silver.  He was such a joy to colour - one of those images that you can go on fiddling and tweaking and shading and blending... it was to stop.... scarily mesmerising!

I heat embossed this greeting from WMS "Hocus Pocus" using black EP.

Halloween wouldn't be complete without a few flapping bats from WMS Gracie at Halloween!


How about some fall fun:
Graph It Markers #14 "Colours Of Autumn"
Delicious Doodles #55 "Eyelets or Brads"
Craft It & Link It Up #16 "Anything Goes with a Sentiment"
Created With Love #60 "Halloween"
Get Inky #14 "Fall Colours"
Make It Monday #160 "Anything Goes"
Through the Purple Haze "Simply Halloween"
Waltzingmouse Fanatics Challenge #2 Colour Combo
Craftin' Boutique Challenges #9 "Anything Halloween"

Now it's your turn to show us your fall colours. You can make any project and link it up to the Tuesday Throwdown Challenge Blog. Check out what the rest of my DT sisters made to inspire you... I think you will be amazed. Happy crafting, my friends!

Beijinhos!
